Athens-Clarke County police said they are searching for three suspects in the burglary of a home in the 200 block of Jefferson River Road on Wednesday in which a flatscreen TV was stolen.

A witness reported seeing three black males leaving the residence and driving away toward Garnett Ridge Drive with the TV in the trunk of a car, according to police.

The car was described as a white four-door sedan, possibly a Chevrolet Aveo, and bearing a Georgia handicap tag, police said.

The suspects were said by police to be between 17 to 22 years old, about 5-foot, skinny and with medium Afros. Two wore all black clothing and the other wore black and white fatigues, and all wore yellow gloves.
